Well, I, like a lot of other people, have been having this problem. Gmod has been refusing to start while in DirectX 9. I'm forced to start in DirectX 8.1. Everything else I have runs in DX9+, but Gmod just crashes while starting, but ONLY while starting. That's right, the problem only happens during start-up. Once you're in the game, you can type mat_dxlevel 90 (or mat_dxlevel 95 if you have shader model 3) into the console, and then start the game to get all that DX9 goodness. I hope this helps anyone else having this problem. :)
PS, if this doesn't go here, sorry, it's the closest I could find for something like this. Also, I don't know if the tutorial icons fits, but again, it was the closest I could think of. :P
